it is good to have a change especially in politics
Good call ALH
Don't be modest. You analysed the situation brilliantly and predicted Shroeder's fate to the letter. He's been cast out to pasture by his own party who sold him out for more cabinet seats!
I had no doubt when I read your original piece that you were offering the most insightful analysis available anywhere.
